Sabeus’ Precision Advantage® Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensor arrays are as strong as unprocessed fiber, provide unbeatable measurement accuracy, and achieve cost effective solutions for today’s market place. Through advanced technology and improved manufacturing processes, Sabeus has perfected mass production of these reliable, durable, and mechanically strong in-fiber sensors. Sabeus’ Cold Writing process, using near-UV light to write sensors directly into the fiber’s core, allows automated, non-invasive, reliable, and strong sensor arrays to be manufactured in large scale. The fiber array elements can be written at various wavelengths and spacing; and are available individually packaged with fiber pigtails, or in continuous spools with potentially limitless sensors per spool, depending on customer specifications. Designed for optical sensor applications, Sabeus’ FBGs are the ideal solution for high channel count rugged sensor systems.

Ideally suited for the accurate measurement of strain, temperature, and pressure, the sensors are designed to be used as stand-alone fiber sensors, or bonded into external housings or packaging. Sabeus’ sensor arrays are the right solution for seismic surveillance, acoustic sensing, perimeter security, maritime surveillance, strain/shape sensing, high-voltage distribution transformer "hot spot" monitoring, distributed temperature thermal profiling, and structural integrity validation for bridges, roads, buildings, and mines.

Sabeus’ highly customizable FBGs are manufactured to meet a variety of reflectivity and bandwidth requirements.

Benefits:

• Highly Reliable
  • Immune to tiny scratches that can dramatically degrade fiber strength
  • Operate even under extreme strain
  • Writing process maintains original intrinsic strength of fiber
• High Design Flexibility
  • Fiber integrity is maintained allowing high performance sensors even in harsh environments
  • FBGs can be written into locations as specified by the customer

• Scalable Manufacturing
